That includes full cage, paint, race ready with the 512 Cid Engine. Push the button and race. I think each motor is dyno'ed before being installed in the car. I have No's 1 thru 10 with a hold on #13 at present. Production is slated for January which will follow the 2010 DP's which assembled all parts etc, then started production. Roush Industries doing the finish from the bare lightweight body, and Arrow Racing (who has been the center for all things V10 from the start) is doing the motors. Prototype motor was pretty good. I know it went down the strip, but no info available. @450 HP runs aa/sa @ 3545lbs. Anybody want one? 70 is the projected number which follows the blown Fords of 2010. The thoughts from Detroit is more of these cars will go into storage than the other DP cars, but probably 20 or so race cars. Some familiar racers have signed up already.

So how do you feel about the new bogus HP cars and the money bags who are buying them now?

Wow X-tech, apparently all of your whining and crying did some good. I was hoping for something like 275, and if comes over out 400..

And tell me again how having the money to be able do what you want to do, is a bad thing making people unworthy to race like you are trying to make it out to be???????

Good job! Apparently the NHRA listens to you. Ther HP problem has been fixed!

I am not saying its a bad thing if you have the money plus it is good to have new cars in racing. I am sure all the people that are buying mustangs and challengers want it to be a level playing field. Why hate on the drivers they don't make the rules.

Im NOT bashing the guys who have these cars. Why cant everyone understand this. There are only a couple who are racing these cars who think their poop dosent stink. Prior to obtaining one of the new cars they didnt have a car that would fall off a mountian. Its the manufacturers who built these cars and summited the HP ratings plus its NHRA's fault for allowing them in stock in the first place and accepting the HP ratings that the problem exists like it does today.

Hey x-tech do you race? I want the challengers and mustangs hopefully the new camaros and anything else the factories can bring. It would be nice also if mopar and others with nhra make parts more available for racers running older combos so we can all win.
